Okay, bought this one yesterday and so far it is working with xawtv and
skype and luvcview. Did nothing special to have it detected on Debian
Testing. Did install the gspca module for my kernel though, but I am not
sure how it actually helps.
It low light performance is one of the best I have seen in usual
consumer webcams.
Looks good so far. The comparison page that another poster mentioned was
also very useful.
Having trouble to get it to work with ekiga for the moment though. I am
getting an error message "Your video driver doesn't support the
requested video format."
